[Screen-Saver] Run application when starting screensaver

Sat Mar 28, 2009 9:56 am
it could be very useful to have the screen saver start a predefine application and also stopping of screen saver can issue an event that starts some other predefined application.

it can be useful for:
1. cpu frequancy scaling down
2. starting backup
3. starting updatedb / cron tasks...
